Defect Report 009 made a change to the text concerning function declarators. This text seems not have made it into C99, even though the issue remains valid. The change should be reinstated.
Change 6.7.5.3#11 to:
[#11] If, in a parameter declaration, an identifier can be treated as a typedef name or as a parameter name, it shall be taken as a typedef name.
